This empty uniform is a treasonous traitor and should be court martialed, if the Woodward book is true. Woodward has a pretty checkered past. His reporting on Watergate was spot on. His book on the Supreme Court was highly questionable. So it’s not clear that what’s in his book is accurate. However, I do believe that he is right this time. As I have said before, Trump’s authority was undermined by the deep state in the military. They refused to carry out his decision to leave Afghanistan while telling him otherwise.

Under the constitution the president is the commander in chief and has total control of the military. It is a bedrock of our democracy that we have civilian control of the military which prevents a military coup. Apparently, Milley sought to undermine Trump and contradict his orders even colluding with China and Pelosi and Schumer. He’s just a higher ranking Vindman. The republicans need to press this issue to the max and kick his ass to the curb with criminal charges and no retirement benefits. As long as the Dems have control, this will never happen which is why 2022 is so important. And when a Republican president wins in 2024, he or she needs to clean house in the pentagon and department of state.
